That Mane chance is going to come back and bite us I think. We haven't got a lot of chances and we need to put away the ones we do get.

Jaysis lads, it was a very hard chance in fairness.

Slipped on the sh!tty pitch.

I take it they held the Welsh Ploughing Championships at the Liberty Stadium this weekend, yeah?

The goal was down to VD for me. Gave away a completely needless corner.

And assisted the goal:P

This Clucas name being metioned makes me think of the great Brazilian that used to play for Cliverpool.

I always think Clucas Leiva

Vvd giving away a needless corner followed by a rubbish header away

Yeah, why doesn't he just stand directly where the ball is going to go? Has he not thought of that? Surely someone should tell him.

Standing to far to his left, and then when shot came in dived from there, ball did not even go in corner. He might want to move his feet before he dives and keep more central in goal in first place.

This is essentially Swanseas game plan working perfectly, set up shop from kick off and hope to nick a goal out of nothing which is what they've got. The big question is can klopps Liverpool break down a team that has zero interest going forward, we always struggle and are certainly struggling here. A couple of nearly moments but that's about it. Still 45 to turn it around so I won't panic just yet.

We’re created two decent chances, Mane and Salah. Should be at least level.

Gbear

There's ways around poor surfaces or players not being sharp on the ball but we're trying to force it down the middle in those circumstances. We should be able to mix it up more with Salah and Mane working overlaps on the wing and getting right to the dead ball line more often but they always cut in, right into traffic, with the whole Swansea defence and all our runners and other forwards smushed together within about 10 feet of them.

Is that half chance is all we create then we deserve to lose I fairness.

SlickRic

These are the games we miss Coutinho. Far more than a Man City game.

That being said, Ox and Can in particular look like fúcking pub players. Can't control. Can't pass straight.

tinpib

This is where Liverpool need to show 'character', similar to Burnley and Leicester recently. Will be another huge win if we can pull it out from here.

Don't blame Mane for that chance at the end, was very tricky.

Mane love a dramatic finish, again he had time to take it down and calmly roll it in. Kung Fu Mane again.

Didn't think you could top the Karius post but I've clearly understimated you...

Unless this is just a piss take, in which case it's very good.

Our midfield is rubbish yet again,I can't for the life of me see what can brings to the table

said it before and ill say it again, Can can f@@k right off. I dont give a sh1t if he leaves. He is the most over rated midfielder we have had since Jay Spearing:D

That Mane chance just there is a huge moment in this game.

As was Salahs but to be fair neither was an easy chance and both would have been unreal goals

He was in the middle of the goal. Stop making it up.

Literally as far into the corner as possible, but yeah alright.

Fromvert

We've come back to turn losses into wins and draws to wins lately (Leicester, Burnley, Everton), need to do it again.

Gbear

The Liberty is the Ospreys stadium as well.

It looks like they've been doing scrums on it because they have.

Potential Underachiever

It's ok lads we have enough quality on the bench to rescue the game, actually scratch that we don't.

Will you be replacing Actherberg?

It hasn't stopped the Swansea boys passing it around mostly on the ground too tbf

I don't rate Karius but you're nuts if you think he could have saved that.

Sure, maybe, but these are extremely common games over the past few years, all of which Coutinho was part of.

Why are people treating Toby's posts as serious all of a sudden? He's always been mad as a bag of hatters.

Yeah it's be electric stuff from them...Cutting us to shreds.

Gbear

Gomez has probably been the only one that's really been outright poor.

It hasn't been a total shambles or anything.

Some games just exposed our limits playing possession football and not having any cohesion between midfield and attack.

Turtyturd

Surprised so many thread regulars still fall for the Toby gimmick.

OwaynOTT

Toby is the only one saying Karius should have saved that and why anyone is taking him seriously is beyond me.
Karius no way at fault for it but that doesn't mean he is pretty useless in every game for Liverpool.

Hatters cant be blammed for his posts. Your mad if you think hatters would have saved him from that post.

Ridiculous that people blame the hatters every f@@king time. Scape goats!!!

It's done for everyone else's sake tbh.

NukaCola

We have shown very little in the final third and Swansea have setup and executed a perfect game plan against us, they've done almost everything right to nullify us......I think we can win the game but we need to be more direct and up the quality in the final third......frustrating first half...

Vicxas

Swansea manager said they had a surprise for us, and boy were they not wrong so far.

I'm relatively new, wasn't too aware of him. He's got some interesting opinions but I won't be subscribing to his magazine.

J Mysterio

Can is playing very poorly. He's something of an enigma and i've been slow to make up my mind on him but thinking he caan only really be a squad player, not be first IX. Plays brilliantly one week and you think he could be a very important player but then, next week, he is feckin plodding around, struggling to break into a jog as he passes from side to side.

On today's evidence, Keita can't get here soon enough. Think we are missing Henderson also.

A few have been a bit lazy in the first half to be honest. They need to wake up and get that ball moving quicker. A few times there where opportunities like the Salah chance

Dare I say it but the type of game against a packed defence where you'd need Coutinho to lash in a free-kick or a 30 yarder.

was thinking the exact same thing....

One of these games where Firmino looks like a championship player. He has them every so often

Losing 1-0 to the bottom team after beating the top team. Stress levels high and pissed off as most had a feeling this would happen as is so often the case over the years.

It's easy then for people to take Toby's bait!

Muahahaha

Martin Tyler creaming himself with the David / Goliath sh1t already, the insufferable pr1ck

daingeanrob

surprised wij wasn't booked for the foul on fer, the way the ref is going

Vicxas

Firmino has been so quiet so far.

Harry Palmr

Why the **** are they constantly playing the ball back inside?

daingeanrob

a bit more urgency this half.

Osmosis Jones

When simple passes aren't coming off it's so frustrating to watch them attempting all these little flicks

Osmosis Jones

Just fall over and get a free kick I guess

Turtyturd

Ref is rubbish.
